Summertime Pasta Recipes
The summer in Taiwan is really, really hot and humid. When it’s so hot outside, it’s hard to eat heavy foods. Since Nono and I love to eat pasta we started searching for a few summertime pasta recipes we could make. We found a few recipes that use lemon juice as a base and started experimenting with them. We have found most of them use either Parmesan cheese or garlic as the main flavor.
The lemon juice – garlic base is named Marvini and is pretty good. Our favorite uses Parmesan cheese instead and it’s called Jamie Oliver’s Summertime Pasta. This one uses shrimp and no cheese.

We’ve adapted a couple things from Jamie’s version. First, we’ve substituted the pine nuts with bacon (3 slices). Second, we’ve substituted the parsley with basil. The herb doesn’t actually matter, both of which you don’t taste at all. Hope you enjoy the pictures of our finished product
